Mitch announces plans for statue locations

And his decision is to bring in yet another “private nonprofit” to run things. Just the way the last nonprofit funded the removals to avoid accountability or the ability to file a public records request. Mitch just can’t help but be an a-hole.

New Orleans is bringing in a nonprofit group to collect public input on what should replace the statue of Robert E. Lee that was removed from Lee Circle last year — a job that is expected to last beyond the two months Mayor Mitch Landrieu has left in office.
Landrieu had promised to gather public input on how to replace the four statues and said the future of the former monuments themselves would be determined by seeking proposals for them from nonprofits and historical groups. But neither of those steps has materialized in the past year.
Walker said the delay was in part a deliberate decision to allow "emotions to cool" and to let residents reflect in the aftermath of the highly contentious removal of the statues.
Wednesday’s announcement about the process to be followed comes just two weeks before Landrieu’s book about his decision to remove the statues is slated to go on sale. Titled "In the Shadow of Statues: A White Southerner Confronts History," it has earned Landrieu renewed attention from the national media.
Colloqate describes itself as a “multidisciplinary nonprofit design justice practice focused on expanding community access to, and building power through the design of, social, civic and cultural spaces” to “intentionally organize, advocate and design spaces of racial, social and cultural equity.” It is led by New Orleanians Bryan C. Lee Jr. and Sue Mobley.

He’s got a book to promote before he gets bitch slapped around for the Democratic Primaries
I know Cantrell won’t be much of an upgrade but can’t get much worse than this garbage can

He's running for president despite not lowering crime, attracting business, or improving the city in any material way.

His entire family is a joke. Maybe the worst thing that has ever happened to Nola and it started with his dad. What a legacy!!

I would bet my life that the new statues will all be of African Americans.

Well, DC just put of a monument to that black mayor they had who banged whores and smoked crack in office, so the bar for 21st century monuments to SJW depravity has been set pretty high.

He’s going to be charged with crimes while in office. He won’t run for President.
